Default Re: Tiiming Chain Replacement

Curious, I pulled my '62 305D out several years ago to replace all the seals and gaskets and repaint it. I remember checking the chain slack and like TJ I was surprised by the amount of slack, but it was still within toleance with 50K original miles.

However, I dont recall mine having a double chain/gears. Maybe it does and I forgot? If it doesn't do you have to change the cam, or do you simply add a second gear?
